A woman prays during Eid prayers at the Badshahi Mosque in Lahore, Pakistan. Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of Sacrifice, marks the end of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia, and honors the Prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son, Ishmael, on the order of God, who then provided a lamb in the boy's place. Around 3 million Muslims make the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, which is one of the five pillars of Islam.
